Temporal Coverage | 1865-1865 |
Description | The Abbeville Bulletin, active briefly in 1865, filled a void in post-war news reporting in Abbeville County, South Carolina. Established by Hugh Wilson, it relied on content from other state newspapers. Its six issues documented the end of the Civil War, featuring general orders from the U.S. military provisional government and proclamations by South Carolina's provisional governor. Reports on taxes and the devaluation of Confederate currency reflected the economic and political transitions. However, it was short-lived, as Wilson and William Augustus Lee resumed the Abbeville Press, leading to the Bulletin's discontinuation. Despite its brevity, it offers insights into post-war adjustments. NDLI hosts contents from/of year 1865 of this newspaper. |
